Trapping Feral Cats

I need a few more humane traps to trap some feral cats.

I have 3 that are 12x12x24 and 2 smaller ones. I need a few more.

Is there anyone willing to lend a trap or two for this rescue effort?

The cats will be altered and I will attempt to socialize them if they are not FeLv+

The kittens will need fosters. Anyone interested?

If you lend a trap I will have it back to you by Monday.

If they are truly feral, good luck at socializing the grown cats. Where are you going to keep them? Where are these cats?

How many cats and kittens are you talking about?

I already adopted a feral cat, shes crazy, but I don't think any other cat would be as much fun.

Up in PA at a relative of River's. She was talking to a friend of ours at Lucky One's about this and she will be helping her. Then I read the thread that River woudl be making them tame and socializing them... I hope that's not what she meant

Ok, so does this mean the cats and kittens are in PA?

I can't volunteer to foster kittens if they are in PA. I am much too far away. Sorry if I am being ditzy.
